Does InAgency status for 1099 mean the QUickbook 1099 service is waiting for the IRS?

Welcome to the Community, @stillwatercreati.

Let me share info about the In Agency status on your 1099 e-filing.

The In Agency status simply means the IRS has received your filing and is yet to be processed. We're unable to provide a specific timeframe for the acknowledgment. However, it does not impact filing deadlines or sending forms to recipients, as the IRS and state tax agencies set those.

Also, there will be a sure posting by the end of January since you e-file your 1099 form before the 28th of this month.
